Formatting Php Form Variable

A user fills out a form which is sent to my email via the variables their data is read into.

I want to have headers above each users entry, and have these appear bold in the email.

The email should read:

OCCUPATION:

Data the user entered.

I have tried

$Occupationheader = "<strong>"."OCCUPATION"."</strong>"."\n\n" ;

and

$Occupationheader = "<strong>OCCUPATION:<strong>\n\n";

The data is sent to the email, as follows: (this works, but want to format the headings in bold).

mail( "myemailaddress", "subjectmatter", $Occupationheader.$Occupation);

Any ideas?

Thanks guys.

NOTE: This is provided as an additional answer.

Without seeing full source code, am providing my (additional) answer below.

The following, need to be present in your code, in order to send out Emails in HTML format:

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

As per the PHP manual on the subject: http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

<body>
<strong>HEADER</strong>
